No later than 10 Business Days after the execution of any amendment to this Agreement of Definitions, the Servicer shall furnish a copy of such amendment to each Rating Agency.
     (e) Without limiting the foregoing, any amendment eliminating the Reserve Account or reducing the Reserve Account Requirement shall require the Servicer to deliver to the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that after such amendment, for federal income tax purposes, the Issuing Entity will not be treated as an association taxable as a corporation and the Notes will properly be characterized as indebtedness that is secured by the assets of the Issuing Entity. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Servicer may notify each Rating Agency that it wishes to apply a different formula for determining the Reserve Account Requirement that will amend the definition of the “Reserve Account Requirement” and, upon the provision of such notice in writing and satisfaction of the Rating Agency Condition, the definition of the Reserve Account Requirement will be revised to reflect such amendment.
     (f) None of U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee of NILT Trust and as Trust Agent, NILT, Inc., nor the Indenture Trustee shall be under any obligation to ascertain whether a Rating Agency Condition has been satisfied with respect to any amendment. U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee of NILT Trust and as Trust Agent, NILT, Inc., and the Indenture Trustee may conclusively assume, in the absence of written notice to the contrary from the Servicer to a Responsible Officer of the Indenture Trustee, that a Rating Agency Condition has been satisfied with respect to such amendment.
     (g) The Indenture Trustee shall notify the Rating Agencies of any proposed amendment or supplement to this Agreement of Definitions.
          Section 1.05 Severability of Provisions. Any provision of this Agreement of Definitions that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the
